The Errol McKellar Foundation and friends of Caswell Thompson: Prostate cancer awareness

The Errol McKellar Foundation focuses on giving presentations and
talks around the UK to raise the awareness of important men’s
health issues, especially prostate cancer. Friends of Caswell
Thompson (FOCT) is an organisation set up for, and dedicated
to, raising awareness about prostate cancer in the BAME
communities in Bristol and surrounding towns and villages through
a range of activities, with a particular focus on reaching black
men, in whom the incidence of prostate cancer is 1 in 4, compared
with 1 in 8 in the general population.
